positions are filledc do you drink water thats been left sitting out overnight or even for another day? have you noticed it tastes different? tap water that has been left to sit out slowly begins to acquire an off taste. many people think that this is because of microorganisms(微生物). but thats not what makes old water taste not fresh. for that we can thank carbon dioxide. after about 12 hours, tap water starts to go flat as carbon dioxide in the air starts to mix with the water in the glass, lowering its ph and giving it an off taste. but its most likely safe to drink. however, back to those microorganisms. if you use a dirty glass day after day, there is more of a chance of bacteria making themselves known; a risk that increases if you share the glass with another mouth as well. but assuming you use a fresh glass every few days, you probably wont have a problem unless the glass has been touched by dirty fingers, and especially if those dirty fingers went unwashed after using the bathroom. as for plastic water bottles that have been left out in the sun or in the car, step away from the bottle, warns dr. kellogg schwab, director of the johns hopkins university water institute. a chemical called bisphenol-a, or bpa, along with other things used to make plastic can leach(过滤) into your water if the bottle heats up or sits in the sun, he explains. bpa, as you probably know, has been linked to everything from heart disease to cancer.schwab also adds that plastic used for commercial bottled water isnt meant to be washed or refilled, so use only one time and recycle. or dont buy them at all; use refillable water bottles instead.28. tap water begin to acquire an off taste because of . a. bpa b. the glass c. the microorganism d. carbon dioxide29. according to paragragh 2 , tap water thats been left sitting out for 12 hours_. a. tastes better b. is still safe to drink c. contains few microorganisms d. is most likely undrinkable30. what should we do with plastic water

following is true about bpa? a. it is safe for people to use. b. it is a kind of new material. c. it can cause great harm to people. d. it is the main material to make plastic.dpreventing obesity (肥胖) and smoking can save lives, but it doesnt save money, reported researchers. “it was a small surprise, for it is against the common belief,” said pieter van baal, who led the study. “but it makes sense. if you live longer, then you cost the health system more.”the researchers found that from age 20 to 56, obese people racked up (累计) the most expensive health costs. but on average, healthy people lived 84 years. smokers lived about 77 years, and obese people lived about 80 years. smokers and obese people tended to have more heart disease than healthy people. therefore in the long run, the thin and healthy group cost about $417, 000, from age 20 on. smokers cost about $326, 000 and obese people $371, 000.“the result throws a bucket of cold water onto the idea, based on guesswork, that obesity is going to cost trillions of dollars,” said patrick basham, a professor of health politics. “if were going to worry about the future of obesity, we should stop worrying about its financial impact,” he said.“the benefits of obesity prevention may not be seen immediately in terms of cost saving in tomorrows budget, but there are long-term gains,” said van baal. “these are often immeasurable when it comes to people living longer and healthier lives.” in the meanwhile, he said that governments should recognize that successful smoking and obesity prevention programs mean that people will have a longer chance of dying of something more expensive later in life.“lung cancer is a cheap disease to treat because people dont survive very long. but if they are old enough to get alzheimers (早老性痴呆症) one day, they may survive longer and cost more. we are not advising that governments stop trying to prevent obesity,” van baal said. “but they should do it for the right reasons.”32. among middle-aged people, who may cost the health system most? a. those who are heavy smokers.b. those who are overweight. c. those who are too thin.d. those who are suffering from heart attacks.33. what can we know about the belief that obesity costs much? a. it turns out to be incorrect.b. it comes from scientific study. c. it is based on medical evidence.d. it has changed over the past years.34. according to the text, governments prevent obesity for the purpose of _. a. reducing the risks of suffering cancer b. weakening obesitys financial impact c. making sure of peoples long and healthy life d. reducing the money spent on medical programs35. what would be the best title for this text? a. recent medical study shows truth about health b. preventing obesity and smoking may cost more c. obesity and smoking lead to expensive diseases d. governments change attitude towards obesity and
